EDITORS COMMENTS
In this aerial photograph, Springfield Park in Wigan, Greater Manchester, England, is showcased in all its glory, as it once stood as the former home ground of Wigan Athletic Football Club. The image, taken in 1992, captures the essence of a bygone era in the history of English football. Springfield Park, with its lush green expanse, served as the home turf for Wigan Athletic from the late 1970s until their relocation to JJB Stadium in 1999. The Latics' journey in professional football began in 1978 when they were first elected to the Football League. This photograph was captured during the 1991-92 season, a pivotal year in the club's history. In the following season (1992-93), Wigan Athletic suffered their only relegation to date, marking the end of their tenure at Springfield Park. As the Latics took to the field on this historic ground, the atmosphere was electric. The community came together to support their team, creating an unforgettable sense of camaraderie and passion. The stands, now empty in this aerial view, once buzzed with the energy of thousands of fans, cheering on their beloved team. Springfield Park, a symbol of Wigan Athletic's rich footballing history, now stands as a reminder of the past. The photograph offers a unique perspective, inviting us to reflect on the memories and moments that were created on this hallowed ground. This aerial view, captured by Aerofilms in 1992, is an essential addition to the archives of English football history.
